"The Austrian Ombudsman Board is characterised by its particular tenacity. We monitor the public administration and ensure that human rights are respected in Austria. I am very grateful that I am able to help people so that they are treated fairly and justly by the authorities," emphasised Ombudsperson Gaby Schwarz in the radio programme "Mahlzeit Burgenland".
The fight against violence against women is "close to her heart": "Every woman has the right to a life without violence!" To support and encourage women in all situations, she has launched the #mutfrauen initiative. On her social media channels, Gaby Schwarz regularly posts videos of inspiring women who talk about when they have had to be courageous.
